The Thin Treatment

I'm sorry but I'd have to disagree. Men like women. All women. All kinds of women. Big women, Thin women, Small breasted women, large breasted women, african american women, asian women, caucasian women, WOMEN.

And I will tell you- I have heard this SO many times- the most attractive thing about ANY woman is confidence. A woman who exudes confidence is extremely sexy and desireable.

Perhaps when you are "thinner" you are more confident and have a more extroverted personality? Maybe thats why women are jealous and men find you irresistable.

Women on here who go from mordibly obese to slightly overweight and make great strides in their body's appearance are extremely attractive. Whether they are "thin" or not, they know how hard they've worked to get there and it shows.

Just my thoughts!

Thanks! I have been overweight most of my adult life.... let's say 25-30. When I was a teenager to 25 I was thin to normal. I have not noticed a difference in how men treat me. I exude confidence and most men are sweeties, so no.... I haven't notice.

I would tend to agree with this. I've been thin most of my life, and never been obese, but I've found that when I'm happy and friendly both men and women tend to like me more. Sure, there are some catty women that just don't like any attractive women, but I think that is more due to their own low self esteem than what I look like. But I don't ever purposely present myself as better looking than another woman, even if I think I am, because beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

Fat chicks are not attractive. I also don't find sickly skinny chicks attractive either, but I'd take that over an over weight woman. But I'd pass on both options really. What you look like on the outside is a VERY quick read for how your brain works and I can quickly assess traits I am not interested in.

what a shallow jerk! I dont care if they lock the thread! the nerve of you... especially since you're not exactly small yourself...

sooo ignorant!

Is he a shallow jerk? He was honest. I don't like super skinny guys and I don't like fat guys. I did a lot of visual judging when I was in the dating world before getting to know the person. Its human nature.

Yeah, I am not shallow at all. I find plenty of females attractive. But apparently knowing what I find attractive makes me a shallow jerk, so be it. I am happy, I know what I want, and I certainly don't care if I offend random people on the internet.

Oh and as for the "I'm not small" thing. Oh really? I didn't notice... That might be why I am losing weight, as my girlfriend and I had an open discussion about her finding me more attractive if I lost weight. I wouldn't EVER fault a person for finding me less attractive the way I looked/still look. You don't buy a painting you don't want to look at to hang in your house. Just sayin. I never said I was a nice person, but I certainly am not asking out someone I find unattractive, and unhealthy people are unattractive. (Yes, that means I consider myself unattractive, OMG who would have thought.)

Haha I love how every subjective thread turns into "HOW DARE YOU NOT BE ATTRACTED TO FAT CHICKS"

RIGHT?

Well at least some people understand I was just being honest. I love how just about everyone who read what I said as awful turned to a personal attack on me. As if I care. I am here to lose weight, holy crap there is a revelation. I never consider someone a bad person because they are unhealthy, I just don't find it attractive. I am honest with myself and the people around me. But hey, if you need the daily troll hate target. Go ahead and fire away.

Hahahah trueeee story.


I guess I'm lucky...I haven't experienced the negatives of being overweight (or extra attention for being thin) that many others have.

MAYBE, just maybe, it's because you've always been hot?

Hahahaha I blame the boobs!

The more weight I lose, the more attention/better treatment I get from men, especially my boyfriend. Oddly enough, the more weight I lose, the more women glare and 'throw daggers'.

Win some, lose some. I just wanna get fit and be ME!:bigsmile:

^^^This, women can be horrible.

I have a friend that belongs to a BBW appreciation group that has nothing but mad love and respect for the BBW ladies out there. Just because it's not what turns YOUR crank, doesn't mean you get to be a complete asshat and bash. This is the wrong place for that!

Honestly, the OP asked for opinions and he gave it. God forbid someone be honest about something on this site. Sure, he could have done it with a little more tact, but he was honest. And to be realistic, the majority of the general public would choose a thinner person over an overweight person. And from a super quick Google search of "BBW" it seems more of a fetish.

This thread was about how YOU get treated at different weights, not what kind of people you're attracted to. If you're not attracted to overweight people, that's totally fine, but there's really no need to state that (and in such a rude way) on this thread. It really was just unnecessary, unless he is talking about how he treats overweight people (which I hope is not the case). If it is the case, then...yeah, that's pretty terrible.
